South West Community Capacity and Engagement Grants
OVERVIEW
The South West Community Capacity & Engagement Grants are hosted by the South West Catchments Council (SWCC), through funding from the Australian Government’s National Landcare Programme (NLP).
 
These grants are designed to support NRM and Landcare community engagement activities within the South West NRM Region that address the following NLP strategic objectives:
  • Communities are managing landscapes to sustain long-term economic and social benefits from their environment.
  • Farmers and fishers are increasing their long-term returns through better management of the natural resource base.
  • Communities are involved in caring for their environment.
  • Communities are protecting species and natural assets.
Activities need to address one of more of the following NLP Strategic Outcomes:
  • Maintain and improve ecosystem services through sustainable management of local and regional landscapes.
  • Increase in the number of farmers and fishers adopting practices that improve the quality of the natural resource base, and the area of land over which those practices are applied.       
  • Increase engagement and participation of the community, including Landcare, farmers and Indigenous people, in sustainable natural resource management.     
  • Increase restoration and rehabilitation of the natural environment, including protecting and conserving nationally and internationally significant species, ecosystems, ecological communities, places and values.
